Bay Vistas from “Bimbimbee”
Positioned in one of Wavell Heights’ prettiest streets, where the established trees touch from either side, 17 Kinmond Avenue is framed by blooming, manicured gardens on a sprawling 830sqm allotment. Showcasing exceptional craftsmanship over two expansive levels, “BimBimbee” capitalises on cool, refreshing bay breezes and wondrous natural light which filters through louvered windows and soaring high ceilings. Rich in history, this circa’ 1926 Norwegian-style home was once renowned as “the barn” and was owned by Queensland Artists who would host sophisticated gatherings on a grand scale in the formal quarters of the home. Now, a thoughtful and faultless update of the home including a fully self-contained Granny Flat now sees the dwelling perfectly suited for quintessential Queensland living, whilst retaining the redeeming charm of its era. The lower level lends itself to vast open-plan formal/informal living areas. The chef’s kitchen, set at the heart of the home showcases new cabinetry, 5 burner gas cooktop, Miele dishwasher and breakfast bar. Ascend to the upper level where rich, polished hoop pine and boxwood timber floorboards are accentuated by the crisp, white interiors and high ceilings. All bedrooms are situated on this level, including a sizeable walk-through study and east-facing third living area, taking in sweeping eastern views towards the bay. Entertainers are sure to relish in the plethora of entertainment areas on offer including the tranquil front balcony, wrap-around verandahs or the generous proportions of the rear entertainment area overlooking the sparkling in-ground pool. A host of lifestyle opportunities extend from the fence line of 17 Kinmond Avenue with Nundah Village and Clayfield precincts offering the perfect environment for entertainment, dining options and markets. Local Nundah State School, Nudgee College, Clayfield College, St Margaret's, St Joseph’s and Mary MacKillop College offer distinctive educational services for families whilst transport facilities positioned mere minutes from the doorstep ensure for an easy commute to the CBD and surrounds.
